ALL RISE
READ:
Mark 2:1-12

Arise, take up your
bed, and go to your
house. __Mark 2:11

When I asked my husband to buy eggs on his way home so I could make cornbread for supper, he said, "I've got something better than cornbread." Coming from Jay, that was a surprising statement. But I learned what he meant when he walked into the house and handed me a fresh loaf of homemade cinnamon bread. A label on the wrapper said, "Thanks for the dough. We kneaded it." The bread was made by Sue Kehr and given as a "thank you" for a donation to a youth organization.
Sue started making bread after she had to quit her job as a nurse because of a head injury. Instead of letting circumstances pull her down when she could no longer help poeple in her usual ways, Sue rose to the challenge and created a unique expression of gratitude. She now makes and gives away delicious homemade bread to ministries that can then distribute the loaves to others.
Although Sue did not receive complete physical healing like the paralytic Jesus healed (Mark 2), she did rise up and cause many to be amazed at the work of God in her life.
God has something for each of us to do, despite our limitations. Rise up and ask what He might want to do through you. __ Julie Ackerman Link

****************Today's Bible Reading __ Mark 2:1-12*************
1 And again He entered
Capernaum after some days,
and it was heard that He was
in the house. 2 Immediately
many gathered together, so
that there was no longer
room to receive them....
And He preached the word to
them. 3 Then they came to
Him, bringing a paralytic
who was carried by four men.
4 And when they could not
come near Him because of
the crowd, they uncovered
the roof where He was. So
when they had broken
through, they let down the
bed on which the paralytic
was lying. 5 When Jesus saw
their faith, He said to the
paralytic, "Son, your sins are
forgiven you."
6 And some of the scribes
were sitting there and
reasoning in their hearts,
7 "Why does this Man speak
blasphemies like this? Who
can forgive sins but God
alone?"
8 But immmediately, when
Jesus perceived in His spirit
that they reasoned thus within
themselves, He said to them,
"Why do you reason about
these things in your hearts?
9 Which is easier, to say to
the paralytic, 'Your sins are
forgiven you," or to say,
'Arise, take up your bed and
walk'? 10 But that you may
know that the son of Man
has power on earth to forgive
sins" __He said to the
paralytic, 11 "I say to you,
arise, take up your bed, and
go to your house."
12 Immediately he arose, took
up the bed, and went out in
the presence of them all, so
that all were amazed and
glorified God, saying, "We
never saw anything like this!"

Blasphemy is showing countempt or lack of reverence for God or
something sacred, such as claiming for oneself divine attributes by
word or deed (Mark 2:7). A violation of the third commandment, it
is punishable by death through stoning (Lev. 24:15-16). __SKT

Sorry for getting this in late... I am knee deep in a new homeschooling year and there is considerably WAY MORE work than last year, being that it is first grade.
